The injured employee was helping spot/align railcars for unloading. The employee assumed the car were moving too fast and tried to jump up onto the railcar to set the braking system. As he attempted to get onto the railcar he was either unable to climb up fast enough and/or slipped resulting in the wheel of the railcar running over his right toes.
